EMBRAER AND CAE STUDY EXTENDED TEAM RELATIONSHIP FOR PILOT TRAINING

S�o José dos Campos, June 13, 2007 � Embraer and CAE are working on extending their relationship to include pilot training for the EMBRAER 170/190 family of E-Jets and the Lineage 1000 executive jet, in support of Embraer's customers throughout the Americas.

"Our partnership with Embraer has proven to be successful, and we are happy to build on it by leveraging our global training centre network," said Jeff Roberts, CAE's Group President, Innovation and Civil Training & Services.

The agreement for the EMBRAER 170/190 family and Lineage 1000 is in addition to the deal announced in October 2006 for initial and recurrent training for pilots and ground crew personnel of the Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 jets. A full joint venture agreement is expected to be finalized within the next few months. EMBRAER 170/190 pilot training is now offered at CAE's training center in Montreal, Canada.

"Our working relationship with CAE has been exceptional and we have the utmost confidence in their training approach," said Embraer's Senior Vice President, Aviation Services, Edson Carlos Mallaco. "We look forward to doing more business together."
